She’s like a Trump mini-me spewing a firehose of bullshit that it’s impossible to keep up with

Yes, I was referring to Australia, and for the foreseeable future. Perhaps when technologies have matured elsewhere to the point of becoming economic and something more than vapourware they could be used here. But there is so much sunshine here I just don’t think it’s required yet.

I’m starting to believe that even in suburbia here in Perth it might soon be possible to go off grid without the need for a generator. With a suitably sized solar array and battery a household can be arbitrarily self sufficient. In the rare event that there is insufficient sunshine, an electric vehicle and Vehicle to Home (V2H) could be used to import KWhrs from a nearby EV charger if required. I’ll certainly be looking into the economics of this in a few years time when the tech is a little more settled. Totally convinced now that Australia really doesn’t need nuclear for the foreseeable future to transition away from fossil fuels. All that is required is the political will, and a rejection of the fossil lobby lies and propaganda.

Anyone seen any of Trump’s sycophantic cabinet meeting where each of them take turns telling him how wonderful his first 100 days have been? It really is excruciating cringeworthy. Kim Jong Un would blush.

Silva belongs in there somewhere

Don’t forget a total lack of empathy, integrity and veracity. Edit: Oops, forgot greed.

👍I think I’ve filled in practically every other match, but at this stage it’s just more of the same. Roll on next season.

Best of luck to Jamie Vardy for the future. A shame he’s leaving at the end of such a shite season but not his fault and anyway I think I’m right in saying that he’s still our highest scorer.

Can’t even be arsed to fill this in

He’s saying that through gritted teeth. In practice he’ll undermine the transition to renewables as much as he can. His “nuclear strategy” is aimed at precisely that.

The alternative, if the US heads further in its current trajectory is to become a vassal state.

Just break with the US any tell Trump to fùck off!

I seem to remember that there was no short of comments in these pages prior to the US election poking fun at those of us who feared that America was flirting with fascism and making accusations of overreaction.

Never ceases to amaze me that these gestapo types seem to spring out of the woodwork fully formed as soon as an authoritarian regime arises.

A really malignant actor on the world stage, zero empathy, zero integrity, and surrounded by a collection of yes-men/women, morons, lunies, and equally malignant types.

Where has this tenacity, effort and positive play been all season? Good effort from a team all but relegated.

Dump and Pump by Trump

Thankfully only watched the 25 min “highlights”. We are so crap. Edit: Monga looks a real prospect

If say the Chinese market was to fall 20% and the S&P only 15%, Trump would think he’s won. Real beggar thy neighbour stuff.

Another loss I suppose. Would be nice to score a goal at least.

Incredible feat. I’d have needed the toilet at least 10 times, probably more.

He can probably wreck it though

As you say, a race to the bottom in the USA now, and we in Australia, and the UK will be lucky to avoid a similar fate. Trump seems to be intent on giving corporations free licence to trash the environment generally (quite aside from CO2) in pursuit of profit. Will they see more companies releasing toxic waste into rivers, etc? Trump seems to be destroying all oversight. Why would anyone vote for this? Baffling.

And Mavididi

The horse is well and truly dead so I shouldn’t be flogging it, but the same dreary, steaming pile is served up match after match, from a team devoid of quality and confidence, just going through the motions.
